SPAM-like products.

My brother suggested that I buy prem instead of SPAM luncheon meat.

So, I tried prem, Klik, Holiday, and Safeway luncheon meats.

For texture and flavour, I still prefer SPAM.


After hash-browns and SPAM-like-product for breakfast; salad and SPAM-like-product for lunch; and macaroni, cheese, and SPAM-like-product for supper, I don't think that I'll be having SPAM-like-product or SPAM for a while.

You might possibly want to try eating vegetarian spam - you will not find it blacklisted anywhere.

Perhaps you should change your forum name to Spamalot?

Then you might possibly enjoy eating some vegan bachelor soup.

I went the "other" luncheon meat route once. There is not substitute for the real thing. I love SPAM. The only problem we seem to have here is finding the Original SPAM. The store we buy from has a whole long row dedicated to SPAM, in a small section of this, if we are lucky will be few cans of SPAMŪ Classic. The rest is... well here is a list varieties from Spam Ū.

SPAMŪ Classic
SPAMŪ Less Sodium
SPAMŪ Black Pepper
SPAMŪ Hickory Smoked
SPAMŪ with Cheese
SPAMŪ Lite
SPAMŪ Oven Roasted Turkey
SPAMŪ Jalapeņo
SPAMŪ with Bacon
SPAMŪ Hot and Spicy

I've tried a few but you just can't beat the original SPAM.

I used to enjoy Plumrose Bacon Grill as a child, but perhaps not now after reading the ingredients:

^ At least the ingredients don't include horse. Not officially, at any rate...

What's wrong with a gee-gee on the menu?

I used to enjoy school meals, with the exception of spam fritters. I hate the stuff.

Actually I just like to keep a can or two of SPAM on hand for when I run out of other meat.
Not really interested in vegetarian alternatives.

I keep food preparation simple, so kangaroo soup is more my speed.
...
Bring water to boil, add contents of pouch.
